I bought Revlon Colorburst lip butter in 005 (Sugar Frosting) and at first it looked nice on my lips but after I looked in the mirror it just looked too bright ( I'm Asian) and ugly on my lips. I regret buying it. : (

oh man, I have searched high and low for these lip butters; however, Hawaii just doesnt have it! >_< Target brought in 1 shipment and has not replenished... :( Can't wait until they bring more in!

From all the lip balms I have tried, I only loved 2.
One is Ceralip by La Roche Posey, which is really really mosturizing, non-colory lip balm, and great for chopped lips.
For mosturizing (only, not that magic like Ceralip) I go with Korres. The lipstick, and the jar are both good.

BTW - I have the honeydew scented one.

I just got the EOS and reviewed it here: http://janemyalterego.blogspot.com/2011/12/whats-in-my-hand-is-whats-on-my-lips.html

Although I can understand how it may be hard to break in, once I cover my lips over it, the heat warms it up nicely, and it becomes soooo emollient!

Also, it is just SO CUTE! I love having it sit on my desk and looking at it. It's so visually cute to look at... I certainly can't say that about my tube of mascara!

I clicked the link to order that eye cream, but for some reason when I click to buy it, it doesn't show up in the cart. =[ I really need a good eye cream since the skin around my eyes are flaking like crazy! Can you help?

I use the EOS lip balm and have had no problem with it not gliding or being stiff. It's very smooth and easy to use.

And I love Tarte's Exposed blush! I have it as well and I love that I can make it darker if I want. I use it in place of a bronzer to contour my cheeks. Love!

Hey Jen!
I've been looking for a good eye cream that's actually hydrating. I've been using Lancome's Genefique eye cream and found it wasn't hydrating enough especially during the winter months. I'll have to check out the Jeune D'Age eye cream.
Can't wait to check out all of your other hits for the month.

I hate the EOS Balms too. They are not soft at all and don't moisturize at all for me. Have you tried any of the Nivea lip balms. I love those a lot.

2011-12-08T01:42:05.393-06:00

those tarte blushes and the lip butters sound amazing!
to answer your question, i think my biggest beauty find of the year is the clarins vital light serum--normally i'm super skeptical about products that are like "we lighten your dark spots, make your face better, and cure cancer!" but this one really works for me, and it doesn't break me out (i don't think i have super sensitive skin, but when i try new things, my skin tends to have a disproportionate freakout reaction, and there was none of that towards this serum). the other, less highly endorsed thing is the l'oreal true match super blendable compact makeup... i hate foundations; i always feel like an oil slick has been caked onto my face when i put foundation on, but this one works surprisingly well for me... however, i usually only use foundation for special events, so it's never on my face for longer than five hours.

2011-12-07T23:28:32.298-06:00

I have had the same experience with EOS lip balm. I thought I loved it at first but I realized that it is simply just not my type of chapstick. I feel that it is just mainly for the fragrance. The aroma of it may be alluring but it may be too strong for my lips because I got an allergic reaction to them. It gave me red bumps under my lip area near my chin and I stopped using it for a week and they were gone. I used them the next week and they were back again so I could conclude that EOS lip balm was not for me. As for Lip butters, I agree with you in non-scented. I absolutely love them especially with how hydrating it is. You are definitely not alone on your opinion in EOS lip balms.

oh no! that must have been a dud eos lip balm! they are definitely NOT supposed to feel like that! :( they are stiff, but they still glide on easily. :) give it another go?

2011-12-07T19:39:17.723-06:00

I reallly recommend 2 lipbalms that I put on every day and night!
They are Mac Lipbalm (the one in tube) and Smith's Rosebud Salve!!!! They are the best lipbalms for me- the Mac smells like a minty vanilla and the other one smells like a rose :D

2011-12-07T16:32:44.986-06:00

Yes please, a tutorial on this look, because you look absolutely gorgeous in this video! I love your earings, I want them :)

I hate vaseline based lip balms, it breaks me out around my mouth so I won't look into these lip creams, but you had me interested in the blush, the color is soo beautiful on you, love it!

I don't have any makeup obsessions, my obsessions tend to lean toward skin care products more than makeup but I wouldn't call it obsessions anyway ;)

2011-12-07T15:41:35.591-06:00

The EOS lipbalm does feel pretty stiff and plastic-y at first, but as another commenter said you have to "break it in". After a few times the balm glides on and it's really nice! It's a bit waxy, but I love it!

I've been having a really hard time finding the Revlon Lip Butters in San Francisco! I saw them in Daly City at Target but I kind of don't want to pay the full price when I know CVS had a BOGO. ANyway, thanks for the review.
I wholeheartedly agree with you on the EOS lip balms. They do NOT work for me at all. When I am able to get it to glide on, it just leaves a waxy feeling on my lips. It doesn't feel like it actually does anything. I still use mine though since I have them in each and every single flavor hahaha. I feel like they smell good though.

Ahhh I've GOT to have that blush now!!! I honestly didn't see myself being "into" blushes at all, but now I'm obsessed with Tarte blushes! Have to find a way to lay my hands on some. Don't live in the US so it's going to be a bit tricky. Thanks for the video Jen!

I definitely have to try this!!
